Hi Baker,

Red Hat Linux has powerful tools to make your file zipped. The package name PKzip/Winzip are available in Red Hat Linux.

You need to type following command syntax for the zip file is given below.

# gzip -v [file name]             (compress)

# gunzip [zipped file name]   (UN compress )

You don't need to install extra applications for file compression in RHEL.
